Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Friday, 6 September 1940

 

 

[I Ching Hexagram] 40.

     

5 o’c. A.M. all clear.

 

Siren muddle at once. 9.30-10 A.M. 1.10 P.M.-2. 6 P.M.-6.40. 8.50-11.15. 11.35-1 A.M. Saturday.

     

Another day of windless heat.

     

Asthma really bad all day. Very severe attacks followed short walk (to the Castle.

     

Even crossing the room, even chatting with Cammell [Charles Cammell] & Mabell, even 3/4 glass Amontillado, even cup Chicken broth: all started hell.

     

Extra heroin did some good, but not much.
